Technical Service Providers (TSP), are individuals, private businesses, nonprofit organizations, or public agencies outside of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) who have received certification by the Natural Resources Conservation Service to provide technical services to landowners or producers who participate in USDA conservation programs.
TechReg is a USDA-NRCS Web site that provides the information needed to register and become a certified TSP. TechReg also provides conservation program participants with a national directory for locating a certified TSP.
The TechReg Web site is easy to navigate. The left and right margins contain all of the links you will need, whether you are interested in becoming a certified TSP, you are already certified or you want to locate a TSP to assist you with your conservation needs.
